The AI Second Brain

TODAY: 1 guide to make your life easier and 1 opportunity because I’m hiring.

GUIDE: I lost $12.250 because I didn't use this simple AI hack sooner  

”Updates EVERY 48H" (my new business automation)

After losing a big client, I realized I was being a little idiot.  

I post on X EVERY DAY since 2 years, 29.000+ posts. Yet, I can't send a little text to good people who pay me $2-7k monthly? Shame on me. I should have had this automated system since last year. Here's how to do it + my prompt:

- You need the ChatGPT $20 subscription.

In the model selection, you will pick "GPT-4o with scheduled tasks (Beta)  

My prompt to copy and modify:

You are my CRM expert and secretary reminder. I have X clients at the moment who I need to send project updates every 48h, X and X. Remind me daily at 11:45 AM and help me provide phenomenal service to them, based on all that you know about me. AND I have X leads to follow up with: X, X, X. Remind me to check in on them and give me tips to reengage them, provide value and close them.  

WHY use this: because if you have clients and leads and you forget to update them a few times, you will lose A LOT of money in terms of customer LTV (lifetime value).

So stop losing money, put AI to work for you with my practical guides. I do much more AI automation, but this can be used by everyone, easy and useful. Got it? Let me know your questions or answer this email for more.
